  • Summary: Age of Mythology transports players to a time when heroes did battle with monsters of legend and the gods intervened in the affairs of mortal men. Players wage war using human armies and diplomacy, progress through development ages, enhance military and economic performance with improvements, and manage economics through resource gathering and trade. Mythology enters the mix when players call upon the gods to act on their behalf or reinforce their armies with more than 20 mythological creatures. Ensemble Studios' new 3D engine adds a deep richness of graphical detail and creates a unique new title based on the ancient cultural history of the Greek, Norse, and Egyptian cultures, which are divided into nine detailed civilizations.

    The balance between the powers, the factions, the troops, and the monsters lends the game tremendous depth and replay value.

    Stylistic RTS ambrosia, mana from heaven and a cornucopia of gameplay and replay value. This one is fit for the gods.

    Appealing to both the intellect and the imagination, it presents itself vividly and audaciously, leaving little doubt that it intends to be a complete experience in every possible way.

    This rts game is one of the easiest to play for how much fun it is. My first game i struggled to survive god powers from the enemy, attacked them with a massive army, lost and then cut out their resources after almost losing my base. The point is it was a roller coaster as were all my other games with the hear pounding defensive maneuvers to the triumph of fortifying crucial resources. All of the aspects are amazing. The selection of gods won't keep you bored. The only thing that is bad is the cinematic mode which you might want to use because you want to see a jackal fighting alongside a spear wielding greek soldier. This game will keep you satisfied, and all the maps will shake it up a little if you somehow become bored with this near perfect rts game.… Expand
